    What are you making from all the food?

    Everyone is stocking up or trying to acquire food. In some cases we don't find what we're wanting due to supply shortages. I've been taking the opportunity to try different ways to prepare foods that may have unique ingredients. What are you doing? Any great recipes for beans and rice? For...

    Sorbitol....

    We've been cutting out higher calorie, heavy fat snacks. Goodbye Ben and Jerry's, hello low calorie popsicles? No HFCS, so they're healthy(?). DW likes these little things so I tried a couple, not bad. After having 3 single pops, total of 75 calories, the sorbitol hits me and I spent the night...

    What's in your coffee?

    We've been using heavy cream for a few years now and it is awesome. Then DW'S cholesterol went bat chit crazy(total over 350) and mine is high also. Dr google suggests that saturated fats should be much lower than both of us are consuming. Three servings of heavy cream are over half of the...

    I read this headline not the article

    These folks were caught when the bank accidentally put 120k in their account and they spent it. I didn't realize it happened where I grew up. I probably went to school with their parents. I guess I made the right decision to run away...

    Anyone tried a B&J Pint Slice?

    These things are expensive and full of calories(250 or more), fat, and absolutely delicious. They're a slice of icecream covered in chocolate. There's only three in a box and one box listed all 3 as a serving. [emoji12] I've had the Cherry Garcia, The Tonight Dough, and Chocolate Chip Cookie...

    Anthem case manager

    Anthem called me today asking if I wanted a case manager assigned to me. The gal explained it was free, included in my premiums. She spent all her time reading from a script with all the buzzwords, improved communication, better support me, monthly calls with my team.... but nothing about how...

    When to fire your PCP?

    I'm wondering what events would trigger someone to fire their old PCP and seek a new one? I'm struggling with the answer for myself and could use a good sounding board. For reference my last primary care and I had a wonderful 16 year relationship. I've moved and well.... I'm not happy with...

    Oh the pain

    Woke up with a big pain in my left shoulder, really bad pain. Spent several hours in the ER, and they finally kicked me out. I was no better than when I went in, I'm actually worse from positions they xray tech made me do. Xray is negative the CT told them I still have cervical spine issues and...

    Urolift? Anyone had it?

    My BPH is causing more problems and my urologist is recommending a urolift. It's supposed to be easier, less invasive than TURP surgery. Any thoughts?

    I don't know who here recommended this detector. Thank You!

    Some time ago someone on this forum mentioned this Gas, CO detector for home use. I don't remember who you are, and can't find the thread but thank you! I can't smell the stuff they put in nat gas and bought this because I sometimes hit the knob on our gas stove. I got up at 4:44 AM and must...

    SS Scam??

    Just received a robocall from the Social Security Administration from Texas. There's litigation against my social security number and they want me to call them. I imagine the scam starts when you make that call. No thanks.

    The newest opioid crisis?

    DW is on day 4 of a monster headache. Migraine meds were ineffective and her doctor finally called in some fiorset(acetaminophen, caffeine, codeine and butalbitral) it's a old medication that works well for headaches. It was the only medication that helps my cluster headaches. Apparently her...

    Something in DW's eye.

    Many months ago DW felt she had something in her one eye. I couldn't find it, eye cup wouldn't remove it. Went to a local optometrist who couldn't find anything and said that'll be 50 bucks. She ignored it for a while and then it bothered her worse and went to the only other local...

    Bradycardia in the morning Tachycardia at night.

    Any great ideas? A year and a half ago my new PCP said my BP was too high, it was, and put me back on BP meds. I'd been off them for over a year with my prior PCP'S ok. She started with the last one I had taken, diltiazem, a calcium channel blocker. Unfortunately it wasn't up to the...
